The Community Outreach Project was born at the intersection of two
simple ideas: First, that there are an almost unlimited number of
under-supported organizations that are having a positive impact on our
community and society. And second, that there are a substantial number
of people in our immediate area who have a general wish to contribute to
"worthy causes", but who don't know how to act on that desire.
If you think that sounds like two groups who should get together, we agree!
The Community Outreach Project exists to bring these two groups together
for the benefit of both. By presenting a series of short lectures, we
hope to make it simple for people to enter the world of philanthropy by
exposing them to some of the most innovative and effective (not to
mention fascinating!) non-profit organizations in the Bay Area.
Starting on April 22nd, The Community Outreach Project and our partners
(which include Google, nVidia and TiVo) will present monthly education
meetings giving select non-profit organizations the opportunity to
describe their work to an audience of potential benefactors.
Our goal is to create an environment where people can
- Get an overview of the charitable landscape
- Develop a sense of the issues that matter most to them
- Connect with organizations that need their support
Sound interesting? Join us at our next event.
